Living in service to Life.

Secret Alliance
 
The secret one
Knows the way
The path is revealed
From her home
Atop the mountain
That exists
In the still moment
Between the beats
Of my heart
 
Along the path
There are just enough pleasures
To cultivate quietude
Teaching tenderness
Revealing grace
Inspiring the notion
That she is there
Guiding me on my way
 
Along the path
There are just enough struggles
To make me strong
Teaching me trust
Awakening truth
Driving the discovery
That she is there
Leading me on my way
 
And knowing she is there
And learning how to listen
To her sweet and silent song
Frees me to be here
Tending to life
And all her deep needs
 
Indulging pleasures
Embracing struggles
Quietly strong
I tenderly trust
The graceful truth
Compassionately celebrating
That we are here
Walking together on our way

Growing Wise
 
Immaturity
Throws fits
Fights against unwanted situations
Curls up in a fetal position
In order to protect
It’s soft belly from the world of hurt
 
Maturity
Compassionately listens
Embraces all situations equally
Opens up and welcomes life
In order to protect
The world from it’s own soft belly of hurt


Secret Path
  

The secret path
To Freedom
Is revealed
Upon discovering
The interlaced pattern
Of stillness
That constricts
And expands
The heart      


Stillness Being  

I am stardust
Redesigned
With conscious awareness:
Eternal stillness being
Human being present
To Itself  

With each breath
Will I try to make
This moment
Serve the needs of a
Limited story
Or will I be
All of eternity
In this moment
In service to the needs
Of the limitless?


Grand Plan
 
Blinded by a cloak
Fear had crippled me
I fumbled through the dark
‘Til it was time to see
 
And when that day had come
I finally awoke
My heart was filled with laughter
At last I got the joke
 
It shook me to my core
And brought me to my knees
Never have I known such Love
And that was just the tease
 
I feel I am exactly
Where I am to be
Every where I look
Life’s supporting me
 
I know it has a plan
The structure’s crystal clear
I know there is a lesson
In everything that’s here
 
Inspired now to write
These simple words for you
Perhaps they’ll be the key
Helping you awaken too


Intuitive Intuition

 
I thought I thought
A truth
It turned out
Not to be

I believe I did
Believe
But I simply
Couldn’t see

And now I’m sure
I’m sure
I know what’s
Really Real

The only way
To tell
Trust the feelings
That I feel


Wordsmithery
 
In my youth
I knew a truth
Of what it was
About
It led me down
A long dark road
That filled my mind
With doubt
 
And now I sit
I am released
I realized
The way
If only I could
Find the words
I’d tell you all
Today
